Researchers have examined the effects of ocean acidification (OA) on the recovery of coral holobionts after thermal stress events.
A review article recently published in the journal Cell comprehensively explored the critical role of microbes in achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
An article recently published in Nature Geoscience journal explored the impact of elevated ground-level ozone (O3) on tropical forests' productivity and carbon absorption.
According to a new study published in Environmental Research Letters, Stanford researchers found that worldwide methane emissions increased faster than ever in the last five years.
Integrating artificial intelligence into today’s environmental management systems might lower energy usage for indoor agriculture by 25%, possibly helping to feed the world as its population grows, Cornell engineers report in the journal Nature Food.
Hundreds of millions of tonnes of plastic waste are generated worldwide every year. Scientists are working tirelessly on new methods to recycle a large proportion of this waste into high-quality products and thus enable a genuine circular economy. However, current recycling practices fall short of this goal. Most plastic waste is recycled mechanically: shredded and then melted down. Although this process does result in new plastic products, their quality deteriorates with each recycling step.
CSIRO, Australia’s national science agency, and Murdoch University have launched The Bioplastics Innovation Hub, an $8 million collaboration that will work with industry partners to develop a new generation of 100 % compostable plastic. The Bioplastics Innovation Hub aims to revolutionize plastic packaging by developing biologically derived plastic that can break down in compost, land, or water.
For the fifth consecutive year, the Plastics Technology Centre presented its sustainability report in which it takes stock of its activity in 2023 in accordance with GRI standards.
